The correct answer is The Voting Rights Act of 1965.

The Voting Act was a federal legislation that prohibited racial discrimination in voting. It was signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson on August 6, 1965.

The Act secured the voting rights for racial minorities through the country. It contained numerous provisions that regulated elections, prohibiting any kind of  racial discrimination against racial or language minorities.

The Act outlawed the practice of literacy tests, which assessed a person's literacy skills. The tests were administered in the United States between 1850 and 1960 as a way of discouraging poor, prospective voters, especially African Americans.

One major importance of the war was that the Union retained its territorial integrity and the South was not able to secede from the Union or defeat the Northern forces. Also as a result of the war the Northern States were able to assert political dominance and a degree or retribution through the reconstruction efforts.
